become friends.
~ Voye Sentespri ou a pou ranfòse detèminasyon nou pou nou fè efò pou kominote kote etranje yo vin vwazen epi etranje yo vin zanmi.
Guide: Revive our desire for the reign of Christ, who releases prisoners and liberates the oppressed, who frees the world from greed and
proclaims God’s peace.
~ Renouvle anvi nou pou rèy Kris la, ki libere prizonye yo epi ki libere moun k ap sibi opresyon yo, ki libere mond lan anba avidite epi ki pwoklame lapè Bondye a.
All: Make justice roll down like a river and righteousness flow like an everlasting stream. Amen.
~ Fè jistis koule tankou yon rivyè, epi fè jistis koule tankou yon sous dlo ki p'ap janm fini. Amèn.

Psalm 16 The Lord, the Psalmist’s Portion in Life and Salvation in Death. A [a]Mikhtam of David.
1 Protect me, God, for I take refuge in You.
2 [b]I said to the Lord, “You are [c]my Lord;
7 I will bless the Lord who has advised me; Indeed, my [g]mind instructs me in the night.
8 I have set the Lord continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
9 Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will dwell securely.
10 For You will not abandon my soul to [h]Sheol; You will not [i]allow Your [j]Holy One to [k]undergo decay.
11 You will make known to me the way of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasure
Sòm 16 (Haitian Creole)
1 Sè yon kantik David. Pwoteje m', Bondye, paske se bò kote ou m'ap chache pwoteksyon.
2 Mwen di Seyè a: -Se ou ki sèl Mèt mwen. Se ou menm ki tout mwen. Pa gen pase ou!
7 M'ap fè lwanj Seyè a paske li ban m' bon konsèy. Menm lannwit, konsyans mwen di m' sa pou m' fè.
8 Mwen toujou mete Seyè a devan je m'. Paske li toujou bò kote m'. Anyen pa ka brannen m'.
9 Se poutèt sa, kè m' kontan anpil. Mwen santi se tout tan mwen ta chante. Ata kò mwen m'ap poze ak konfyans nan Bondye.
10 Paske ou p'ap kite m' kote mò yo ye a, ou p'ap penmèt moun k'ap sèvi ou la pouri anba tè.
11 W'a fè m' konnen chemen ki bay lavi a. Paske ou la avè m', mwen pa manke kontan. Bò kote ou, Seyè, se yon plèzi ki p'ap janm fini.
